Ok, I know we have quite a few of these threads out there, but I need to know how to jack up my car DIY dummies simplified version. And yes, this is a real question

I need to put on my new wheels, I've read the manual, but I can't seem to locate the jack grooves/points. I will be using the stock jack that comes with the spare tire kit. I took a quick look (since it's wet and cold) and it was hard to see anything under the rocker molding and the tire. If anyone has pictures, it will help me tremendously, as I am more of a visual learner.

I also have to install this on the street, is it ok to install one side and then drive and turn the car around?

 

on each side there is a rail if you will that fits into the jack. you can kinda see it with this photo. I can draw circles if you need

 

Please draw circles so I can be sure

 

Great picture howarmat!
Remember, if you are installing aftermarket wheels, some require that you remove the factory washer clips on the wheel studs. My '05 had clips on two studs per wheel.

 

Yeah Matt, I want circles too!

 

at the end of each rail that has the square around it there will be a place to putt he jack, it will be tough to see but you can feel for it to. kind of a notch i think.

as for the sprocket that is on the wheel stud



its a little circular metal piece. take it off before you put the new wheels on if its still there anyway

 

But those are rectangles!! I'm disappointed
JK!! lol

Thanks!! I'll try to tackle this tomorrow after work

 

phucker, that means we have to wait lol

 

knowing me, I'll probably end up dropping the car on my hand in the dark

They are still in the boxes, I so want a sneak peak but those are soooooo farking heavy.

 

So I put jack stands here after I jacked BY THE PUMPKIN...I didn't want to use/bend/mutilate the rear axle.

Idiot or no idiot? Btw...LMFAO @ catalytic converters.
